Camargue 2011

Camargue, France

From August 6th until August 16th we were on vacation in the wonderful area of Camrgue in the south of France. I also visited La Crau and Les Alpilles during our holiday. We were staying in the Petite Camargue, from where it was a short drive to some nice nature places. The Camargue is famous because of Europe´s largest colony of European Flamingo´s, but there also for the many egrets that live there. It is also a great place for Dragonflies, as you will notice in this gallery.

Prachtige waarnemingen en een fraaie collectie foto's heb je meegenomen vanuit de Camarque Albert. Vooral weer veel nieuwe soorten toe kunnen voegen aan je collectie foto's. Je hebt je duidelijk wel vermaakt in je vakantie zo te zien. Groeten, Art & Gisela (ook van de kids)
